Abstract
In this study, we sought to determine an appropriate LED light source that can be applied for the quality control of Aphidius colemani. Four LED light sources (385, 405, 450, and 660 nm) were evaluated in a Y-tube experiment (choice test) using a 5,000-k white LED as a control. The 385 nm LED light source was found to have attractant effect on A. colemani. In a no-choice test (Y-tube experiment) evaluating the remaining three LED light sources (385, 405, and 450 nm), the attractiveness of these light sources for A. colemani was high in the order 450 nm > 385 nm > 405 nm light, with no statistically significant differences between 450 nm and 385 nm. Given that 385 nm LED illumination may cause skin damage, we selected 450 nm LEDs for application in a device used for the quality control of A. colemani, which we subsequently demonstrated to have an attraction rate of 87.4%. We believe the findings of this study will make a valuable contribution to the quality control of natural enemies.
